How many hours of daylight in Alaska these days?

In Anchorage it's about 6 hours, I would say. Sun rises around 10:30am. I'm so looking forward to winter solstice...

I lived in Anchorage for a summer. Best time of my life. Well, one of them...

Ken From Hyde Park:

About thirty years ago, I visited relatives in Eagle River, north of Anchorage. They said that near the equinoxes, they'd gain or lose an hour of daylight a week, which I found amazing.

@weirdwolf - A few miles west of Seattle, WA. Days are shorter here, but not that short.

Jeff, AK is pretty great, but I prefer summer solstice. Summer here is pure heaven...

Ken we are lose 5 minutes of daylight a day. But soon we'll start gaining 5 minutes a day. Can't wait. This music feels fitting for our snowy, dark days...

Only 37. I have cassette tapes older than that. Irwin probably hs airchecks older than me.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:15am
coelacanth:

i ☆ed that white light white heat even though i didn't hear it because -"long"?...i always wished it was much longer.
......now i just need to hear a much longer rendition of "we're gonna have a real good time together"...preferably live, with some balls, like the patti smith versions.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:18am
coelacanth:

what's only 37? my life as a non-virgin? i knew that.

Jeff Conklin:

Well, I'm pretty tall and I doubt I'm the youngest one here....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:24am
pacific standard simon:

I guess it amazes me, sometimes, how so many of the DJs at "the free-form station of the nation" are my age or older -- and by that, I mean 'nearing retirement'.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:29am
coelacanth:

it's a good thing simon. i don't think i've ever met anyone who's under 35 now who doesn't like abominable shit music- even if they also like really good music. (& even if they like wfmu)

'tis a dull oppressive kinda morning on the jurassic coast of the UK...keepin it locked to wfmu helps me through...thanks jeff
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:35am

It has its ups and downs, coel -- I've put on some classic swing or r'n'b music at work and got a very positive reaction. But the Velvet Underground? Not so much.

Oh man, this Hiragi Fukuda is soooooo good. Damn

In case anybody is sitting on the fence about this: Yes, The Man In The High Castle IS a series that is worth watching.

I've met many people under 35 who have, in my opinion, exquisite taste in music. I also live in a failry large metropolitan area
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:48am
coelacanth:

i live in a semi-permeable bubble simon. velvet underground gets played at college parties here sometimes.
-also things like Trane and even Anthony Braxton.
...but at some point,inevitably, some mindless rap (or "hiphop",or "modern r&b" comes on...it's all [c]rap...) takes over.

absolutely wonderful music ! Merci Jeff C.
And bonjour !
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:00am
coelacanth:

simon, i too have gotten very positive reactions playing solid old rnb, or rocksteady reggae in the pub; or actual punkrock (as opposed to what passes as punkrock today)...but when the people who got on the dance floor for that go up to the jukebox, they- with rare exception- play shit.
...and if they don't play shit? it's still always "commercial" hits.
  5:19am
Listener142985:

Wow, some extended rant about the tin ears of the young. Seriously? Can just hear echoes of parents saying similar things since Elvis. Give the kids a break, they will be adjusting your feeding tube one day. My 20 year old daughter has far more sophisticated taste in music than I did at her age.

good morning and thank you for easing us into this day with music!

i was in anchorage for summer solstice one year. i wandered out of a bar at 11 pm and it was still light out. i even photographed a moose at 1 AM with no flash! everyone around me had a scrip for ambien, tho.

Jeff Conklin:

My pleasure, Monica...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:43am
coelacanth:

-985 - either your daughter's an exception and has nothing to do with the blatant truth about the overwhelming majority or you were terribly unsophisticated at 20.
...and rock and roll (& elvis) were shunned by adults for far different reasons than the reasons why commercial music sucks now. there's little similarity between the 2 situations.
...there's nothing to "give them a break" about. i'm just stating it.
